Drew,

  Your SOL; there is no such animal.\

<<Everything I have found on
Google so far points to an MSKB article which has code to get a schema
through ADO, to see who is in a database.>>

  That's it as far as I know. 

<<I am about halfway through creating a new LDBView, but it's involving a
lot of guess work and reverse engineering.  Getting a little tired of
walking up hill with this, so if anyone has something prebuilt, it would be
much appreciated!>>

  Difficult at best because you also need to read the locks associated with
the login from the OS.

Jim.

Does anyone have something like LDBView for 2000 (or newer) databases?  We
recently converted from Office 97 to Office 2003, and have a few of our
databases (even very stable ones) get corrupted several times in the last
week and a half.  LDBView would tell me who corrupted a 97 database, but it
doesn't work correctly with Access 2000 and up.  Everything I have found on
Google so far points to an MSKB article which has code to get a schema
through ADO, to see who is in a database.  That's all well and good, but it
doesn't work if the db is corrupt, because it can't connect to it.  I even
created an app that stayed 'in' the database, and when it went corrupt, the
code from MS didn't show who corrupted it.

 

I am about halfway through creating a new LDBView, but it's involving a lot
of guess work and reverse engineering.  Getting a little tired of walking up
hill with this, so if anyone has something prebuilt, it would be much
appreciated!

 

Drew
